Ferndale DUI & OWI Charges
The State of Michigan has a national reputation as one of the worst states to receive a drunk driving conviction. Out of all the counties in the state, Oakland County is the harshest when it comes to punishing drunk driving offenders. In fact, it is quite common for first time OWI offenders to receive jail time, thanks to the harsh sentencing given out by judges in the county’s district court system, the 43rd District Court. This court handles all DUI arrests in Ferndale and the surrounding communities, as well as a host of other criminal matters.
The court in Ferndale is quite a bit more challenging than other Michigan district courts for individuals charged with drunk driving, due to its location in the county with the harshest drunk driving sentencing in the state. Because of this fact, it is critical that any individual facing OWI/DUI charges in Ferndale seek out experienced legal counsel as soon as possible. Choosing the right DUI Defense Lawyer can be the difference in whether or not your charges will be reduced or even possibly dismissed.

It is bisected by Woodward Ave, and is one of the primary communities making up the Woodward Corridor. The court that is responsible for handling drunk driving and criminal charges in the Ferndale community is the 43th district court, located on the north side of 9 mile road just east of Woodward Ave.
